C. MICHAEL. | | | | _Second Edition. Crown 8vo, 6s. net_ | | | | | | “Unchallengeably the best war budget of its kind that we have | | had.”--_The Referee._ | | | | “A collection of absolutely authentic accounts by privates | | and non-commissioned officers.... In the language in which | | these fighters couch their experiences and opinions we see a | | great simplicity and directness of observation and recital, so | | admirable that _one page of such writing is worth all the folios | | of the war experts and correspondents_, not to say romancers and | | publicists.”--_The Athenæum._ | | | | “It is a stimulating and hopeful record, full of the real | | atmosphere of the war, and Mr. Wood has done a serviceable thing | | in producing it.”--_Daily Chronicle._ | | | | “The human side, the naked horror and simple glory of actual | | conflict, is what Mr. Wood’s soldiers are concerned with, and the | | stories they tell give a clearer picture of this side of war than | | can be found in any other form.”--_Pall Mall Gazette._ | | | | “All Mr. Wood’s papers make us feel, if that is possible, prouder | | of the British sailor and soldier.”--_Evening News._ |
